Thanks for taking the time to do this. I am guessing you can use this same technique to make figures for kids' cakes, right? I'm not a fan of fondant and I think I could have more control with this than strictly figure piping.

YEARS ago I was playing with playdoh and did this same method and made beautiful playdoh roses and thought, oh, these are so pretty...never realized they had edible stuff that worked the same way! This is great to know!

You are such a blessing and such a giver. So happy that you have had people stepping up and doing nice things for you...God will never leave your nor forsake you, so when the going gets rough and you feel like you are being attacked from every side...he sends special people along to bless you and remind you of how much He loves you!!! Glad you are having a great day. Love the video and look forward to more...

P.S. I am sure you have been told this before, but your voice reminds me of Kirsty Alley

They look great, and so easy once you explained it! Thank you very much for the video!

You really did a nice job on the video, Dawn. It's easy to follow and nicely filmed.

Hopefully you're going to upload the video - and future lessons - to YouTube.com. Maybe someday you could even start your own channel there.--------------------------nutralady1, here's the answer to your question, on an Australia site: http://womansday.ninemsn.com.au/food/foodfeatures/993619/corn-syrup

What a wonderful tutorial! I seem to recall that you were going to post your fondant recipe at some point - did I miss it? I would love a fondant recipe that actually is edible! I can't wait to try the roses!

This was wonderful it makes me want to bake a cake right now and make up some roses. Not sure if my boys would like a rose cake for their b-days but they might just get one!!!! I can't wait until August for my baby girls b-day too. And you are so beautiful with everything you are going through you amaze me. You're in my thoughts and prayers, and I hope that 2011 will be wonderful for you and your 6 pack!!!

Dawn, thanks for the video! Can't wait to try to make these with my granddaughters! Not great at decorating but you make it look easy! Thanks for thinking of us when you have so much on your plate right now. Prayers going your way for sure!

Thanks so much for making and posting this video! You should have your own show! I could listen to you talk all day. I can't believe how calm you are with all that's going on in your personal life right now. Blessings to you! Brooklyn is such a cutie! Great addition to this video.

I took cake decorating classes at Michaels several years ago and never did master the buttercream rose. Where did you learn this technique? This way is much easier and looks more fun! Thanks again!

OMG! This is fantastic! The video was great. Thank you so much for showing us and making it look so easy. I'm not planning a cake anytime soon, but the bigger roses would look gorgeous on top of a cupcake. I have candy melts in my pantry right now and they're calling my name! LOL

I was just trying to think of something cute to do for my daughter's birthday cupcakes and was googling "flower cupcakes" when I remembered this tutorial. I'm so going to make rose flowerpot cupcakes for her birthday! Thank you!

Wow! What a fantastic idea! I will sharing on my facebook wall. Thank you so much for sharing with everyone! The roses are beautiful just like you! Your beautiful personality shines right through! Very lovely once again thank you!

I loved this! It was SO easy to do! I made my daughter a "Frozen" cake for her 7th birthday and used the roses, as well as made some snowballs. I wanted to add pictures of my first attempt, but I can't figure out how to upload one.
